A Suicide note from judas iscariot
Judas. His name has become synonymous with betrayal. He is one of the most hated figures in Scripture, literature, and history. But what if he had the chance to explain himself? What if, before hanging himself, he had left a suicide note? What would he have had to say?
These are the questions that A Rope for Judas, the first novel by Robert S. Turner, seeks to answer. Coming in summer 2019 from Resource Publications, the book is a first-person account of Judas’s relationship with Jesus and the concerns and motivations that led him to hand his friend and rabbi over to the religious and governing authorities on that fateful Passover night in Gethsemane. It is the wrenching story of dreams deferred, of the collapse of idealism, of human relationships at their most raw, of life and death, of hope and despair.
A Rope for Judas is available now in paperback on the publisher’s web site and in paperback and Kindle versions at Amazon.com.
